3. BBC News Click Interview aired in June, 2015 in UK & USA

The reporters from BBC has visited Korea for South Korea special episodes. As their kindly request for an interview, we had a nice conversation at the Art Space Moon40 in the west village(서촌) area near Gyeongbokgung (The Palace.)

I had an interview with a reporter from one of the leading newspaper company, Donga. It was first interview in Korean so it was a bit strange. She found about me from the Leonardo Journal article and google searched my office number at the university. I wasn’t sure if she was going to publish the interview but, I guess she did wrote an interview article in May 2009. The reporter kindly phoned me about the WCU grant my team got but, she must have forgotten to give me a notice about it being published. Several months passed after May and I just recently found out about the article at the Donga Science Paper. My cousin found it in the internet.

Sorry, it’s in Korean and the title is a bit too aggressive in my taste. Also, it has translated NYU wrongly – it probably doesn’t matter here in Korea but, most of the contents of articles – I remember saying that.
